The City of Irving sent out a safety reminder to all parents.
As a reminder for parents, the Fire and Police departments will provide free window static clings and rearview mirror hangers to Irving residents.
Safety Tips
-
Never leave infants, children or pets in a parked car—even if the windows are slightly open.
-
Put something that will be needed for work—cell phone, briefcase, employee badge, etc.—in the backseat.
-
Keep a stuffed animal in the car seat. When the child is buckled in, place the stuffed animal in the front as a reminder.
-
When leaving, check to be sure everyone is out of the car. Do not overlook children who may have fallen asleep.
-
Call 911 to report a child unattended in a vehicle.
